Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 The brick comes with 2 plastic wrappings. The outer one is removed to activate the brick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Hi , The brick is wrapped twice. Once in a metallic gold wrapper, which IS removed. The brick itself is also wrapped in a shrink wrap plastic, that conforms to the shape of the brick and has a color coding on it. THAT shrink wrap deal does NOT get removed. You keep it on until the blue spot goes from blue to pink to clear. Then it's time to change it. So to answer your question, ONE outer wrap is removed. It will be larger than the brick, and has ridges on each end of the package. That one gets taken off. The inner wrapped brick itself has a plastic coating, like Saran wrap, and that stays on. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
